"I'm afraid you won't have the chance to get out." A cold female voice came from outside the cell.
Xu Si suddenly looked up, and when he saw the person coming, he jumped up from the ground and pounced towards her.
"It's you, you bastard!" Xu Si's eyes were bloodshot, and he reached out to grab her. "Xu Jiang, quickly tell them to let me go, or I'll make you live a life worse than death."
Then came another round of unbearable insults.
Xu Jiang looked at him quietly, looking at this person who had despised, trampled on, and bullied her since childhood, a person who had frightened and frightened her in the past, but now she felt that he was nothing special.
What is there to be afraid of about such a person?
After he finished his madness and was clinging to the wooden bars to gasp for air, Xu Jiang slowly said, "You have no chance. Now that you are in this cell, you will have to wait for the government to decide your fate."
"Sentence? You still want to sentence me?" Xu Si patted his chest, where a deed was placed. "You can redeem the sentences of Xu Dang and that lowly slave, so naturally someone will redeem mine. When I get out, I will skin you alive first."
"Atonement? Are you talking about Zhou Huai or Wu Cheng?"
Xu Si did not answer, but stared at Xu Jiang in surprise and suspicion.
"I know it even if you don't tell me. Not only do I know it, but the county magistrate knows it too." Xu Jiang gave him a sardonic smile. "But I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. They'll probably be struggling to protect themselves after this and won't have time to care about you. Besides, from what I know about them, even if they could redeem your sentence, they definitely wouldn't do it."
"Why?"
"Who would spend money to redeem a useless piece of trash?"
The word "waste" stung Xu Si's heart. His eyes were filled with hatred. "I didn't expect a bastard like you to have some tricks up your sleeve. I should have killed you back then."
He kept calling her "bastard", which reminded Xu Jiang of how he used to call her that too, never by her name, only "bastard".
"So what if I'm a bastard? I was blessed by the heavens and earth, and that's why I'm in this situation today." These two words didn't stir up any ripples in Xu Jiang's heart. "And you've ended up in this situation because you're too stupid and too greedy."
Xu Jiang looked at him as if he were a cornered dog. "You sold your wife and children to gamble, sold your ancestral home to come to me for money, traveled thousands of miles to the capital, and betrayed your brothers and servants. Like father, like son..."
Xu Jiang sneered, "No, you are better than your teacher. You are even more shameless than Xu Yan."
Xu Si's face turned ashen.
Her eyes darkened. "You must have heard that my master's book was selected by the imperial court for admission to the Imperial Academy. From now on, it will spread far and wide, and his name, Xu Yuan, will be remembered forever."
"What a shame! His glory and blessings belong solely to a bastard like me. You and the Xu family can't get even a sliver of it." Xu Jiang smiled as she delivered a heartbreaking remark, "You deserve only to rot in this dungeon, looking up at me as I walk toward the path of light."
"Ah!" Xu Si lost control and hammered the wooden bars of the cell. "These were all mine! They were meant to belong to our Xu family! It was you, Xu Jiang! You, bitch, stole them! You took them for yourself! Return them all to me!"
Xu Jiang's eyes were cold as she looked at him with anger, madness and helplessness. Hatred and pleasure mixed together and hit her heart, shaking her soul and making her feel both painful and happy.
This is the taste of revenge.
She said softly, "From the moment you killed him, you will never deserve anything from him."
